This study explores the integration of novel social challenges facing the European Union into the teaching materials of Medical Biotechnology Master's Programmes at the University of Pécs and the University of Debrecen. By examining the relevance of issues such as healthcare policies and bioethics in medical education, the paper highlights the importance of adapting curricula to better prepare students for contemporary societal needs. The findings emphasize how academic institutions can contribute to addressing these challenges through innovative educational approaches.

Ion channel receptors • 1Cys-loop receptors:pentameric structure, 4 transmembrane (TM) regions/subunit • Acetylcholin (Ach) Nicotinic R – Na+ channel • GABAA, GABAC, Glycine – Cl- channels (inhibitory role in CNS) • 2Glutamate-activated cationic channels: (excitatory role in CNS),tetramericstucture, 3 TM regions/subunit • eg. iGlu • 3ATP-gated channels: 3 homologous subunits, 2 TM regions/subunit • eg. P2X purinoreceptor

Nicotinic Ach receptor • Pore formed from 5 subunits: 2a, b, g, d • Opening: the 2a units are distorted • Desensitization: in the open conformation the b, g, d subunits become phosphorylated by Protein kinase A and C Top Front
